We would like to take this opportunity to introduce ourselves to you.
Richard D. Cheng, FCSI Senior Vice President and Senior Investment Advisor Direct: 604.631.2628
Originally from the Philippines, Richard immigrated to Canada in the 1970's, establishing his roots in Vancouver with a vision of helping his clients fulfill their life goals. Starting his practice in the early 1980's at another national firm, he has successfully built his business based on trust, integrity, and service. To achieve true success, he believes that you must find balance in your life around the five "F's": Family, Friends, Finance, Fitness, and Faith.
After 25 years, he continues to help his clients achieve their life goals by expanding his role into areas such as financial, estate, and insurance planning.
At the moment, he's training for the upcoming Royal Victoria Half Marathon on October 7, 2007. In his off time, he enjoys spending time with his wife, Kathy, finding new recipes to cook, drinking a nice bottle of 'chewy' red wines, running and hiking the Grouse Grind.
Chris Canavan Estate and Insurance Advisor Direct: 604.631.2609
Originally from Montreal, Chris is a sought after specialist assisting our clients with estate and insurance solutions to protecting their wealth by reducing and mitigating the share claimed by the tax man.
Before joining our group, he successfully built a name for himself at Maritime Life developing tax and estate planning strategies for high net worth clients.
Always willing to try something new, he's taken up skiing and enjoys spending time with his wife, Jackie, and daughter, Megan.

She started her career over 13 years ago at a financial planning firm before joining BMO Nesbitt Burns over eight years ago.
Recently married, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Brian, and keeps active around town running along the sea wall, hiking, and salsa dancing. This will be a busy year, competing in the Hobie 16 World Championships in Fiji this October 2007 and in the Kelowna Dragon Boat Festival in September 2007. Just recently BMO's dragon boat team, "Finding BMO", took home the bronze medal at the Richmond Dragon Boat Festival!

He is readily available to answer any administrative or portfolio questions or to chat about the markets.
If you ever get an opportunity, James is a wealth of information on World War II and anything about Start Trek! You can catch him running downtown most of the week in the afternoon and participated with Richard in the Vancouver Marathon relay held on May 2007.
We believe management is the backbone of our business. Canace provides our clients with administrative needs to ensure we provide the highest quality of service.
